TPB grant to fund design of new Forest Glen sidewalk

A long-missing piece of pedestrian infrastructure in Forest Glen is a step closer to being filled in, thanks to a grant provided by the Transportation Planning Board of the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments. The $248,000 grant will fund an preliminary engineering design for the 2700' long sidewalk, on the north side of Forest Glen Road. It will link pedestrians on that side of Forest Glen Road with Woodland Drive and Sligo Creek Parkway, providing additional access to Forest Glen Metro Station, Forest Glen Medical Center, Holy Cross Hospital, Sligo Creek Stream Valley Park and the Sligo Creek Trail. The grant was approved for the Montgomery County Department of Transportation.
